Sick pt. 3 01:46
Did you think that you could address me Did you think we would come to an understanding Did you think I could lift these things You thought you knew me Don't think I can't hear those gears turning I can feel you leaning and it's suffocating Why'd you pick me I can't Please just go away

Defense 01:44
I'm reverting back to fourteen You can't stop me Fuck all of y'all You refuse to see what I see You can have your thoughts But this isn't your song It's ok to be wrong I just think you're wrong You're still wrong I am a rock I am an island I am a bunker I'm a fortress I am a rock I am stone-faced in the whole charade The branches twisting in the rain And you I've held it in so long My mind it makes me sick It'll stay right here until these vessels quit Pumping jealousy into my coated arteries My own distrust will kill me And I want it
3.
Why is it so hard To ask a question To you I'm just wondering Inside taken to far But I want to See you a little better You are a light Who's hard to look at I think about you all the time But I can't tell you that Can I Please forgive me I'll never get this right Please don't look through me Just wanna be part of your life It's ok
4.
Trust you Give me a reason to Are you exhausted at me I guess I'll be sorry You see These things were built around me And I let them in They poisoned me I poisoned them This is just the way I've been Just can't open What's in here Contents unclear Everyone's scared I am terrified of ever showing Or even knowing There's bars on my windows now So no one's getting in or out
5.
From my Room 01:34
I am all that I have left Sitting here smoking this metal cigarette It hits me when I need Don't give me what I need You don't need to believe me I'm looking for the real thing I was fooled all along Why can't I take this mask off
6.
Didn't ask for it But I'll stick around I'm used to it by now You're not the first But it still hurts And I can't let you in anymore I won't let you in anymore You don't notice who And you don't care at all Got you're pretty one into Will they catch you when you fall Who will you call Cause I can't let you in anymore I won't let you in anymore I know who wants me And who just wants my time I don't want you anymore in my life You just take from me You just wanna take from me Silly me I didn't see you as a snake Who wants me on my belly too Stupid stupid me Gave you an inch and then a foot And it was never enough I thought you were good I thought we were good You thought we were good Thought you were good But you're not And you're not Please can you not
7.
I did this And I know the consequences When you're in it How much you know yourself I am learning I am saying what I'm feeling If you want me I can try to With my defenses And straddling these fences Didn't feel advances On what I know is wrong And this is me now I'm not afraid of anything Except for this
8.
Thought it wouldn't be too bad If I could just make it Through the night I had six packs in The set went just fine Spent the night avoiding it But he comes anyway In this rocking chair I sit I sway It'll never be ok I guess we're doing this Everyone seems fine with it You think I give a shit I guess we're doing this Held on to the lights Kept me on the ground Held on to the streetlights Let me know what's up and down Why you smile at me If you knew You wouldn't be Off the deep end I'm drowning Don't you dare touch me Nostalgia counts for nothing When I'm ashamed of that me I'm still ugly Because I wanna be You can't change me Please don't smile at me

In my Bed 03:00
Tried to keep it airtight tonight I'm leaking and it might not be alright Trying not to spill a drop It's not something I can stop Stephanie You probably don't remember You kind of fucked me Behind a shed Summer of '95 in Aston Any lasting effects I know weren't meant It's just these friends They always give it in the end It's always the same I hope you're doing ok Endlessly think of these things As I shut my eyes repeatedly I was just trying to sleep Broken satellite dish Drags along my neighbor's house It scraps along the brick And it's orange outisde The thoughts come back again Maybe I should die But I just breath deep And try to go to sleep
10.
I woke up today I decided to do some stuff today Shut off what my brain was gonna say Didn't need it anyway And I ran today I ran as far as my little legs Could carry me through this awkward phase A great escape Today I've got a reason to be here Today I learn to live more with this fear I don't need you here Come on let's play All those bad thoughts just put them away Before we take the fall of old age I wanna see I'm still searching for this thing I wanna see Today I feel enough of me alive Delay the clock that ticks away the time Today I see with eyes unclouded by hate Now's the time You wrote to me You spoke to me I couldn't let go of these lies I still don't know But I can't just keep it all inside I could come to life It's about time
